This was ok but I've always had the shrimp with Lemon rather then lime. The lime is always just a garnish. The other things is the shrimp should be raw and cooked with the citrus juice. the sauce was alright but cooking the shrimp just ruins the dish.Reply

The sauce was salty enough didn`t have to season the shrimp with salt. This is a savory, sweet, sour and spicy sauce. To be used sparingly. I steamed the shrimp. and made the sauce as directed.Reply
